Duststorm ( Cal ), being the only child to unsavory parents braved the most of their harsh treatment with bubbling rage just waiting to sink its fangs into the nearest cat, often released in harsh, spit-flying yowls in the middle of the forest, uncaring if his parents overheard, or if it brought attention to his miniscule frame. Neglectful and uncaring of their son’s emotions, they carted him around, pretending to be the perfect family when nights often ended up in heated arguments, screeches and claws tossed in a frenzy, Cal knew only anger and pain.
It wasn’t until Tatteredlight ( Lux ) was born with peculiar eyes did he realize just how vain his parents were, abandoning his younger brother—defenseless, near twolegs. They dragged him away from the mewling bundle that was his baby brother, odd hues peering at their retreating forms in confusion. He fought, shouting curses at his parents for being monsters, promising Lux that they’d meet again. His heart swelled with rage, lashing out with everything he had, but futile.
He was trapped, unable to escape until by some miracle, Cal slipped away out of pure luck. He began his search, running head first into danger with unresolved anger brewing. Cal was no stranger to fights. Agitated and volatile, Cal is thankful Lux and Shiori never truly saw this side of him. A monster, most said when coming into contact. An asshole readily spewing anger-filled words as he traveled from place to place, but never once did he deny someone help, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t land himself a few more injuries to lick.
Over time, his anger simmered, maturing and adapting to his constantly changing environment , stubborn, but far less tempered.
Hollywhisper, born Shiori, was born to Duskpool, who was then named Youkai, and his late mate who was killed alongside most of his sisters not long after her birth. Despite this, Youkai took good care of Shiori and his surviving sister Ume to the best of his ability. However, a dog attack separated the family, with all members believing the others to be dead, and Shiori became a wanderer, seeking thrills and excitement while also learning more of the world.
Upon meeting, Shiori offered to help Cal locate his brother, and the two would sometimes join up to search together. Their relationship was far from friendly at first, with Shiori adopting the nickname 'Cally' to annoy the other, and Cal having a more gruff personality. Over time, though the banter never left, they slowly grew fond of each other as they journeyed together.
Eventually, they found Tatteredlight in SkyClan, and the two decided to join - Cal to be with his brother, and Shiori both due to his desire to learn about Clan culture, and not wanting to leave Cal. He then discovered that Duskpool was also a member of SkyClan, which cemented his choice to stay. However, a simple inquisition from Tatteredlight led Shiori to question how he truly felt about Cal and, after much deliberation, he decided to confess. Though they are mates now, their relationship is still full of fond bantering.
But not long after both making things official and receiving their new names, Duststorm and Hollywhisper, the latter finds out that he's pregnant. Having never talked about it with his mate, nor having a mother figure in his life, Hollywhisper is left conflicted about the idea of starting a family. Duststorm is also not sure he'll be a good father, but the two of them decide to do the best for their growing family.

I decided to use Clangen to make some hypokits for them! The sprites made using the Full Genetics mod for ClanGen by Chinch Bug in the ClanGen discord, and their modified version of CatMaker by Key, also in the ClanGen discord. You don't have to use any of the listed names, they are just there for funsies! You also don't have to use the designs either. Because of the image limit, I've only included their warrior sprites for now! Please shoot me a DM if you want all the sprites for a particular hypokit!
